UPDATE on my last review: Since writing my last review below, they have splattered concrete all over the side of our house and refused to fix it; they obviously do not care about their reputation. When we asked them to fix it, their construction manager, Bob Lund, suggested we try a wet towel, to wipe off dried concrete--the most disrespectful organization, they should not have nonprofit status. I have also attached a picture of the concrete splatter, if they ever try to build in your neighborhood, do everything in your power to stop them.

For a community developments nonprofit, they sure did not communicate with ANY of the community members for this project.

This community development nonprofit is a shame.

The mission statements of Neighborworks SLC is is



I honestly do not know how this organization has its nonprofit status. this nonprofit did not work with our community; no one in our neighborhood wants the house they are building, especially not my neighbor nor I, since it will decrease the values of both of our homes, you can see from the picture how close they are building to our house. Our bedrooms and bathrooms are on that side, so this "Community Development House" will take away all of our privacy. This nonprofit does not build communities, it destroys them; they are looking to turn a quick profit on this project and that is it, while devaluing two neighbors homes in the process. As per your mission statement, your nonprofit did not work with the community, nor get their input.

Our community is not okay with this. We, the community are going to dedicate the next couple of months to fighting this project in anyway that we can; because this is so wrong, especially for a nonprofit to do.
